"What does the light bulb have to do with the U. S. Constitution? Or the board game "Monopoly"? How about the letter you wrote to the president when you were in elementary school? The answer to all three questions is: plenty-if you know your Constitution. The education team of the National Archives and Records Administration is pleased to present, for the first time, a self-service online version of our popular U. S. Constitution Workshop! This activity is:
* Suitable for grades 4 through 12
* Fully self-contained, requiring little advance prep time
* Correlated to the National History Standards and the National Standards for Civics and Government.
We hope that you and your students will enjoy this unique opportunity to learn, through analysis of primary source documents, about the content, impact, and perpetual relevance of the U. S. Constitution to the daily lives of American citizens. "
Have an AP class that needs help with DBQ primary source documents? Do you want to introduce primary source documents to your class? Use the Constitution Day Workshop by the National Archives as a resource. The class will spend an hour analyzing primary source documents from the National Archives and relate them to the constitution. Many different references ranging from war orders of sent by Lincoln to Grant to Albert Einstein's immigration papers. You can print up copies of the information or view them online in the computer lab or project them for use as a class.
